AFAIK, the rear never had spacers. My understanding is the purpose of the front spacers was to stiffen the suspension so the nose didn't dip when loading and unloading the car from shipping containers.

Told the dealer to remove these when I was buying the car. Thought he did. About a 2 weeks later I was under the car and looked up and saw he left 2 on the back side of the coil. Proves you cant trust a dealer to even perform something this basic. You always need to babysit and supervise them.

We had a 1991 300zx on the lift yesterday. Guess what I found? Someone left the same spring supports on it since 1991. Amazing.

They are shipping spacers, it prevents the front suspension from compressing much so the spoiler doesn't scrape while being loaded and unloaded from the car carriers.

Would da 2011 NISMO have this???

There is 3 on each front spring. When they prep your vehicle for delivery they are supposed to remove them but sometimes they only see the outside one and leave the other 2.

MrJdmNismo · 01-28-2011, 01:41 PM

Im going 2 check it out 2morrow n also I'm adding washers on my exhaust ill add a vid on my YouTube and take pics of da spacers too...

holy #!#$. I was wondering why it looked like a regular 370 was lower than my nismo. I think the stealership will squeeze me in tomorrow.
